Starting up the Gorge Creek road on a glorious early winter day.The grassy slope to the ridge starts just after the creek.This is the creek - and the reason the road is closed!This is the creek - and the reason the road is closed!Evidence of the June floods is everywhere in the park - anywhere there are creek beds or rivers.The grassy slope to the ridge. You can head straight up or go to climber's right and then back left on gentler slopes.Awesome views to the west as I grunt my way up the grassy slope.Not much snow on the ridge.Not much snow on the ridge.Panorama looking ahead along the ridge. Bluerock Mountain and Mount Burns to the left.The cliffs on the west side of the ridge are nice scenery.CliffsFrom this point onward the hike isn't the greatest IMHO. Lots of light bushwhacking and the views aren't any better than the initial ones.Mount Ware, Rose and Threepoint.Lots of this - it wasn't bad though. There's probably a trail in the summer.The summit is ahead - first some more elevation loss.The other group is already at the summit.
